This satirical, comedic drama is all about about the rise of Catherine the Great, from outsider to the longest reigning female ruler in Russia's history. The Hulu original series describes itself as an occasionally true story, but the series stars,Nicholas Hoult and Elle Fanning, are consistently fun to watch.

In this reality competition, 10pairs of amateur gardeners from around the world push their skills to the limit as they compete to create stunning, supersized floral sculptures. This show is mind-blowing -- youll never believe the art these florists are able to create in such a short amount of time!
IF YOU LIKE THAT, WATCH THIS!
Netflix
- If you like the small-town vibe ofGilmore Girls (Netflix) and the premise / stars of Reba (Hulu), watch Sweet Magnolias on Netflix!
Where to Stream:Season 1 available to stream May 19 on Netflix.
Why We Love It: This new Netflix drama is an easy-breezy binge, and its sweeter than Southern sweet tea! Sweet Magnolias stars JoAnna Garcia Swisher as Maddie, an instantly likable mom of three, whose small-town world gets turned upside down when her husband cheats on her -- and then leaves her for his new pregnant girlfriend, played by Jamie Lynn Spears. Swisher recently dished to ET that shes thrilled by all the small-screen comparisons for Sweet Magnolias. Gilmore Girls is just one of those shows that tears at my heartstrings. I love it so much it makes me cry, she gushed. So yes, I would be grateful to be included in that sentence.
- If you likeThe Boys (Amazon Prime Video) andInglourious Basterds (Netflix) check out Hunters on Amazon Prime Video.
Where to Stream: Stream Season 1 of Hunterson Amazon Prime.
Why We Love It: Mixed reviews on this series seemed to keep many from giving it a fair shake, but check out the jaw-dropping first scene of theshow and see if it hooks you. Hunters follows a young Jewish man (Logan Lerman)who is taken in by a covert group of Nazi huntersled by Meyer Offerman (Al Pacino), living in New York City in the 1970s. In this alternative historical fiction, high-ranking Nazi officials are laying low in the U.S., planning the rise of the Fourth Reich.
REWIND OF THE WEEK

Scream
Where to Watch: The entire Scream franchise is available to stream on Showtime.
Why We Love It: Whats your favorite scary movie? Hold the phone, because this week were talking about the 1996 hit,Scream. This gory, R-rated horror film was groundbreaking at the time: It was a slasher flick that successfully crossed over into the mainstream, spawning three sequels and one of the most iconic killers in movie history. (Not to mentionits the movie that inspired an entire generation to spring for caller ID!)
Heres a killer fun-fact for you: The final scene in Scream took 21 successive nights to shoot! If that doesnt make you feel a little woozy, then we suggest you lock the windows, pop some Jiffy Pop and settle in for a Scream marathon this weekend. Just dont answer the phone!
